Any game taken this year by a patched bullet?  Tried my best this weekend but didn't see anything.

One shot one deer with a 420 gr PP bullet pushed by 90 grs of Goex 2fg. Last year same story. I use a .45 cal muzzleloader with a 1-18 twist barrel that I size down and thumb start bullets. Cast bullets work equally well---bullet weights from 420-500 give best accuracy.

zrifleman, is that the rifle you built using a GM barrel, that I remember reading about some time back?     Woodbutcher

woodbutcher--good memory! The rifle is way better than I could have hoped for.
